1. What is KL-6? KL-6 is recognized as a valid indicator of lung injury and pulmonary fibrosis, and is expressed on the surface of type II alveolar epithelial cells, in normal lung tissue and terminal bronchiolar epithelial cells. It is expressed in very small amounts, and is enhanced in degenerative (proliferating, regenerating, or damaged) type II alveolar epithelial cells, which is directly rel...
In vitro diagnostics (IVD), refers to products and services that obtain clinical diagnostic information by testing human samples (various body fluids, cells, tissue samples, etc.) outside the human body, and then judge diseases or body functions. In vitro diagnostics is known as the "doctor's eye" in the medical field, and is an important part of modern laboratory medicine, and its clinical ...
POCT is indeed an important direction for the future development of the IVD industry and has broad prospects. Let me elaborate on the advantages and development trends of POCT for you: 1. Efficient and convenient detection mode POCT adopts a distributed, real-time detection mode, similar to the resource allocation method of online car-hailing, which greatly improves the detection efficiency and re...
The paramount importance of chemiluminescence technology—a mainstream technique in immunodiagnostics—in the field of In Vitro Diagnostics (IVD) is self-evident. However, in the current highly competitive environment, technological innovation remains the core competitiveness of enterprises. Breaking through the traditional barriers of chemiluminescence and forging new paths is the inevi...

Founded in 1949, ADLM is the world's highest quality and largest annual event for clinical testing, showcasing cutting-edge medical technolog...
In the first two issues of popular science, the mainstream chemiluminescence technology in immunodiagnosis was introduced, and it was also understood that chemiluminescence is divided into homogeneous chemiluminescence and heterogeneous chemiluminescence according to whether separation and cleaning steps are required. Compared with the traditional heterogeneous immunoassay mode, homogeneous chemil...
The most common respiratory symptoms of COVID 19 patients include dry cough, dyspnea, pneumonia, etc., and in severe cases, white lung can appear, and respiratory failure is life-threatening. Even after rehabilitation, many people still coughed, and many people panicked, and took the initiative to go to the hospital to ask for a film to see the condition of their lungs. COVID 19 infection c...
What are the hormones fertility? When do I need to check? When is the right time to check? What's the point of each one? 1. Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) It is a glycoprotein hormone secreted by the pituitary gland, and its physiological role is mainly to promote the development and maturation of follicles and secrete estrogen. 2. Luteinizing hormone (LH) It is a glycoprotein hormon...
